The Mini never gets old, and ever since the BMW rebrand in 2001, it has become the go-to choice for those wanting a fun and premium car.
Recently the firm has made a strong commitment to going green, and now has a strategy for its future products including going all-electric by the end of the decade and using more sustainable materials.
WHAT'S NEW?
The latest Mini was released in 2024, but now the firm has introduced the five-door version. This model keeps the circular OLED infotainment screen, there are lots of customisation options, and now all Minis come with an automatic gearbox as standard. But does that mean the Mini's fun nature has been lost?
WHAT'S UNDER THE BONNET?
There are two choices of engines the C or the S. We're driving the more powerful Cooper S which utilises a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that develops 201bhp and 300Nm of torque. Its performance gets the Mini from 0-60mph in 6.6 seconds and to a top speed of 150mph. All Minis now come as standard with a seven-speed double-clutch automatic gearbox.
